Good evening everyone.
I just got my 04 F150 SCREW back from the shop after having a RC 4 inch lift installed. I also replaced the front suspension (Bilstein 5100s) including upper and lower control arms (Moog) and coil springs (Moog).
The shop told me I had some slight rubbing and would need to do some trimming, which I thought was odd considering I had 35" tires put on.
After further inspection, it was only the passenger side that was rubbing against the running board and fender trim. I noticed that the wheel was about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch further back than the driver side wheel.
They pretty much told me that I must have frame damage, yet there is zero evidence of such, and the truck did not go in that way. The truck also pulls to the right, which I'm guessing is a result of the wheel not being centered.

Does anyone have any suggestions/feedback what could possibly cause this?

 

Get it aligned and checked.

 

They supposedly did an alignment, but clearly didn't test drive it. I'm probably going to take it somewhere else today and have them check it out.

 

I would recommend taking it to another shop.

The last thing you want is worn components after you had all that work done. Or worse cause an accident.

To put it the way Monroe does in the triangle of safety: Stopping, steering and stability.

 

Sounds like the shop was unqualified to do the job! Nobody would ever let a vehicle out on the road like that!!!!!

 

They probably moved the passenger side steering arm when they were doing the install. Center your wheel. Do a quick front of the wheel and back of the wheel measurement on both sides and look at your tie rod ends. As suggested, take to a good alignment shop who does lifted trucks. Also, I think 4 in is right at the edge of needing to change your upper and lower control arms. You didn't mention how the lift was accomplished. Good luck.

 

You would think. 100% agree with your sentiments.
Took it to Les Schwab this morning, and the alignment was so far out its not even funny. $99 later and everything is good. The customer service was so much better too.
Needless to say, the other place will be hearing from me tomorrow. I'll give them copies of the alignment/work report and tell them that they either need more competent employees, or a new machine. Or Both.

Theres a lot more that they dropped the ball on, but im just glad i can wash my hands of those clowns now.

 

Thank you for everyone's input.
